Nourishing is also about creating memories. With over 80 years in Guatemala, Nestlé supports families at every stage of child development, offering support, science, and a genuine commitment to the well-being of those who need it most: children.

Guatemala, 2025 – Some stories begin with a smile, with a tiny hand clinging to ours, with a gaze seeking love and receiving protection. Childhood is made up of unique moments: the first bite, the first step, the first “mama” or “papa.” And although every child grows at their own pace, they all deserve the same: nutrition, care, and a loving environment. On this journey that transforms lives, Nestlé has chosen to be present from the very beginning.

For over 155 years, the company has been a part of the lives of millions of families worldwide, and for more than eight decades, it has been a part of the daily lives of Guatemalan families. Not as a main attraction, but as a silent ally at breakfasts, snack times, and in those moments where habits, memories, and lifelong bonds are cultivated.

Nestlé actively promotes breastfeeding as the best way to feed a baby and supports its continuation for the first two years or beyond. This conviction is at the heart of everything the company does. Nestlé also understands that parenting is a profoundly human act, full of nuances, conscious decisions, and unique needs. Therefore, Nestlé always advises parents to consult with a healthcare professional for guidance on proper nutrition for their children, to address any difficulties they may encounter, and to choose the best option based on their needs.

Every Nestlé product, every innovation, responds to a real reason: to support those who need it most, without interfering with the emotional bond that feeding represents. We believe that we should guide people on their journey with food, not impose our will. Listen, don't judge.

“ Love for our children is expressed in many ways, and one of them is through nutrition. At Nestlé, we believe that every family deserves to feel supported, with clear information, reliable products, and a support network that is there when it is needed most ,” shares Patricio Astolfi, General Manager of Nestlé Guatemala. “ It’s not just about science; it’s about purpose. About being there, in the moments that create lifelong memories ,” he adds.

That message also lives on in platforms like familynescam.com , where mothers, fathers, and caregivers can find free educational content, healthy recipes, practical lunchbox ideas, and helpful tips for every stage of development. On its social media channels, Nestlé engages in conversation, shares, and builds community. Because crying is easier when you're not alone.

Being a mom or dad is discovering the power of the small things. It's understanding that love is expressed through food, and that a shared meal can become a tradition. It's giving your best every day, even when there's no instruction manual. That's why Nestlé is committed to being there for you, with humility, dedication, and the certainty that every child deserves to grow up strong, happy, and full of potential.

Nourishing is not just a task. It's an act of love, hope, and faith in the future. And in Guatemala, that future begins at home, with the daily care of those who love unconditionally. Nestlé wants to continue being there, growing with every family, from the first step to all those that follow.
